Structure / Body
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain 2009-2024 dry van trailers equipped with a rail-style lift gate. Please see the recall report for a complete list of models. The location of the rear impact guard is too far forward from the rear of the trailer, reducing impact protection. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 224, "Rear Impact Protection."
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
In the event of a rear impact crash, the rear impact guard may not sufficiently protect light duty vehicles, increasing the risk of injury.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will add an extension to the rear impact guard, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 4, 2023. Owners may contact Wabash customer service at 1-765-771-5404. Wabash's number for this recall is B23015.

Service Brakes, Air / Disc / Caliper
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Van Trailers manufactured December 9, 2013, to August 25, 2015, and equipped with certain Meritor EX225L2, EX225L+, and Bendix ADB22X axles. The affected axle assemblies have brake caliper mounting bolts that may not have been properly tightened, allowing the caliper mounting bolts to back out and the caliper to detach from the axle flange.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If the caliper detaches from the axle flange, braking performance would be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Wabash will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the caliper bolts, tightening them as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on January 11, 2016. Owners may contact Wabash customer service at 1-765-771-5404.

- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
In the event that both sides of the pivot connection crack, it could cause a separation of the axle/suspension assembly from the trailer, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Wabash will notify owners, and dealers will replace the pivot bolts with new pivot bolts, free of charge. The recall began on February 9, 2015. Owners may contact Wabash at 1-888-396-6501.
